Morning everyone!
mael, two 8s and 1 nine
hey saani! how are things?
haven't found the nine yet!
gerund the 6/33
oh there it is
and thank you
sad that wi4men isn't a word
fantasy has lied to me all this time
someone will jump on me for making gerund a verb! Agreed re the sages
I mean the wi4men.
yep
I can tell you that this grid got a lot easier when, after about 100 words, I discovered the gerund ending
lol
same. I felt so silly!
same
I got down to the R and found the r4 and went.. oh. right.
I am not word nerdy enough to jump on you for making a gerund a verb
thanks Molly. at least it's not hump letter , double hump and the chair letter etc we used to do
That was the lamest of the lame
My favorite was "roundy letter"
gosh, had forgotten that one
well, I'm already stuck on the first letter.
double hump, roundy letter, double sticks, sometimes vowel
hokie that wasn't a clue -- it was how 'Molly' would have been clued in ancient times
lol, yeah, I didn't take it as such
The last letter in my name is "divining rod" 😊
perfect!
I guess mine is teepee or tepee or tipi
this is either a tough grid or I need to wake up more
have you found the gerund ending? hah.
yes, I started by trying to make gelding
just teasing, both saniich and I biffed on it for a long while
I've 79 left and am quite stuck
once I saw the G with an N under it I looked to see if there was an i nearby. I did see it much earlier than usual.
159 here but still going through. have to leave in 15 min for a haircut so probably won't make it. have gotten half on everything so far but the K and E.
200 but just got here...
be thankful I passed on puns about divining rods
Hi all.
hi mlf
mkg that is
well, 87 left. didn't get half on the K, first E, or the A
Any clues for the k welcome.
1st pass done - HOET - bbl for last 58 - have a great day all
bye monty
105 here still
bye ru - "poof"
K is ke5/20, i think it's another word for the rug
Really? The rug? Hmmm dont know it.
the rug is spelled with a ki.. not sure what this word means
Not seeing anythinbg. Tried keged thinking it might work but didnt
Well if anyone has any more clues i could use one.
Got it. So nm clues. Ty
phantom - mildew
yeah, the ke5 is alternate spelling for the rug
I just looked it up because I had no idea either
wa7/56....clue please
wared
sorry
add the gerund
tyvm.... Iveadded so many this one escaped me
yw
63 left, bbl
12 here.. but stuck
Ok, I’m processing. Am I supposed to have ever heard of a rug that starts with k? Feeling seriously dumb
and obviously having trouble chatting with the ipad
ke5 and it is all in the upper corner
Thanks, bea. Finally got the right combo of letters
yw
Are these a words hard? Can only find 3
Well, just found one more
I haven't got there yet.
Yes, they are difficult.
been pecking at this all day and still only have 4 As
This was a tough one.
I just found out yesterday that I came home from our river cruise with Covid. Can't think clearly enough to play Babble
dire
oops, wrong box
good morning/afternoon everyone :)
hello there nan!
hello! FW for me!
yay for mael!
Hi saanich. Were you getting all that heavy rain this week?
light rain thank heavens. Now the soil is soft enough for a heavier rain. We need a lot more though. How,s it where you are?
been raining for 3 days -- sun is breaking through now though. Glad to hear it isn't to bad there - my neighbour is on a much anticipated vacation in the islands this week
I see that my tiara has my birthstone in it today :)
nan, your neighbour will enjoy our sunny weather today
re
Nan my birthstone too
rehi
still only 5 a's so no HOET
hope you are better soon, bichon
Nan gets a tiara? I don't see Nan in the grid.
must be her real name again, but we never guessed it that other time
We get a tiara for having our name in the grid? Is it first or last?
hi again
yes, my real name is in the grid today
Ahhh! So your real name is Flarine!
considering the other abreviations and acronyms we get, I thought wifi would be accepted
I'm just down to the two or6es.
missing those as well, dauber
Ooh, got one!
Kinda looks like the brand name of a frozen food.
trying to find my last w at the moment
alas - we don't have the same brands as you do
Ack! Didn't notice the maple leaf!
or the B.C. flag :)
Basically, it looks like a generic mineral.
your icon relates to today's grid I assume?
WHOA!!! Got the other one, so FW for me!
Needed that...thx!
thanks for the frozen food mineral! Potatolicious!
You made me LOL Seain!
wifi is too new
Simply going by what I remember from high school French, the other or6 might be "relating to the ear."
or "shaped like an ear"
and possible not allowed due to it being short for Wide Fidelity.
champ, I think it's any part of your name for the tiara
I mean elhi and jato are allowed and stupidly so
good point there
My last name is Cline, which is a valid word. I'm due retroactive tiaras!
or6, WV is a place I just learned, the mineral one.
found what must be the mineral one
I agree the wifi is short for something else, but so are a lot of other accepted "words"
any clues for the other or 6?
Reminds me of what you use Preparation H for
oh - I thought that was the mineral one
different middle vowel for mineral
got it though
yay!
ty seain
fl 8 please?
I'm finding fl7s so far...
the 8 follows the one who escapes
Oh, it's the secret real name
oh, interesting, thank you Molly
last two: fl 8 and wi 6/39
any clues please?
found the w
The fl8 is like the fl7..add a cons in the middle.
Just finished. Enjoy!
Adele
yay champ!
that's me done as well - ty for the help
Close, Molly :) Enjoy the rest of your day everyone
yay nan, HAGD
oh my goodness this grid
first pass and still 43 to go
i'm only on the first row
i can't find the K
Also missing the K
KE 5 / 20....
a word i did not know...
got it
thanks
ty, the stats helped me monkey it
it's like a very bad abbreviation for a type of pie :)
lol
phantom: mildew
better than real mildew
nrk still here?
still here... dog wants me to stop babbling
down to 33 now
still don't have the 9... stats?
idk. read interesting news story today about putting programmable lights on the bridge. environmentalists opposed.
programmable ... traffic lights? decorative lights?
like LED light displays?
traffic lights would make sense on that bridge, but would slow things WAY down, so I'd probably oppose... LEDs would just be silly and unnecessary... the bridge is pretty enough as is.
which bridge
yes. complaints about a disney like atmosphere and harming the swallows that nest under the bridge.
Lambertville, NJ - New Hope, PA free bridge
a protected species. if i lived there, i would say no.
TO, I agree about both, even though I'm not exactly an "environmentalist." I just think of all the beautiful towns in Scotland I've visited, and few if any of those would put programmable lights on an old bridge. :)
i get it. please don't get me started on the disneyization of america
this grid... ugh
really. i started it while waiting for my luncheon out this afternoon.
Went to the list at 32, and just struggled to find my 2 missing A's. So far the list is only helping me go from NO to SLOW.
i need 80
not long ago a girl posted on reddit asking for advice about whether she should quit dancing after instead of getting moved up to a higher class, she was moved to a lower one
add ing to a lot of words
i told her it really just depended whether she ENJOYED dancing
if she did, then she should keep doing it
if not, there's no reason she had to
i have only 4 longer words
heh, hurshy, too true... my instructor didn't put me on the list for some "exams" that are coming up in December, and at first I was kind of sad, but I reminded myself of how much fun I'm having and I got over it in about 5 minutes
thanks for that hint
wi5/7/8 combo, where the 8 is a gerund
well it's the same with babble... don't keep yourself going on a grid if you're no longer having fun :)
sw5/8 combo, where the 8 is a gerund
i am glad you are enjoying dancing. beats the gym any day. hope you are feeling better.
yes, hurshy, I do quit when I am annoyed, but I always try on my own, with the current chog, and then with the list first
I'm at 24 now... whoo hoo!
i just found an sy7 and 8 (pt)
ri5/6/8 combo, but that 8 is not a gerund
ooh, sy7 and 8, looking
have all the 8s now, but not the 9
ooh, nice!
I have 6 of 7 of the 8s
the SY words are ordinary words...
yep found em
name that proper noun! pond associated with Thoreau
walden
ding ding ding!!!
11 to go
whoa, now you're speeding right along :)
6, but some of these words I really would never have found without the list
found the 9!
down to 2
TO, also try adding the guys word to the end of some words
done!
anyone want a nudge on the 9?
i do!
it's a shortened version of a be11 word
wi9
thanks
or what almanzo couldn't help doing every moment of his life
lol
ty...
I was thinking of doing a Nellie-appropriate clue, hurshy, but I thought I'd be kinder than that
lol
okay, dog is giving me the "you really don't love me if you babble instead of cuddling with me" look... gotta run
bye, nrkii...
em7/36 # 2 pls?
bye, nrk
i only have one, the green gem
oooh yeah there's the one that sounds like a painful and embarrassing thing you can have...
starts the same...has the mineral ending...or robotic ending...
ty
i'm very weak on D words
missing one....
but i listed a while back...
it would be a lot easier to do these longer grids if words didn't disappear...
ooh i found another pair of Ds!
i had a false start this morning....didn't realize that i wasn't being credited with finding words for a while....very irritating...
name that proper noun! Brave princess
sorry...no clue...
it's ok, i just throw them out there. if people know them, they do, and if they don't, they don't
90% done!
i went through the list and still have 18 to find....lots of 7s and two 8s still missing...
lots of 6s, too....
i hate to ask for clues but i fear if i need one no one will be here.
i will be here a while longer, that's for sure...
or6/21 pls?
like the brand of frozen potatoes but different ending vowel...
change the third vowel for the other or 6/21....
is that the second one?
the first one i clued is the first....the other is the second one....
okay let me look ty
i need the last re word as well, it's a 6
the two middle letters are vowels in both words...but the first of those is different in the second word...
i do not understand both words.
or + two vowels + **lta airllines....that works for both words....
or rather, why you are referencing two words.
well i didn't know which you needed and they are almost the same...
nm i found it. do you need anything
no, thanks...
good night
goodnight...
i am finally done....bye all...
ooh, pouring in the vodka ahead of the OJ makes a stronger drink. Noted.
And Tito's Vodka FTW
